Raised on music and performance in a family of performers, the stage is 22 year old Liam's 'happy place'. But it's more than a passion; Liam's talent has been recognised through being offered a place at the prestigious London School of Musical Theatre. He's one of 24 from 1500 applicants, and only the second New Zealander to make it. This Grant supports Liam to take up this spot, to build on his dedication to singing and dancing and decade of theatrical productions. Amongst his multiple competition wins, awards and major roles in stage productions, Liam was also selected to perform in Carnegie Hall in New York in 2016. Liam has big dreams after he graduates to succeed in professional theatre around Europe, but also bring skills and experience back to Canterbury and New Zealand for the next generation of performers.
